    Do people not like heated seats?

    Have to turn the seat off after 5 minutes in the 320, they heat up that quick. Dunno how my daughter can sit there with the seat on Max and still complain of being cold!!

    Contaminated petrol courtesy of Tesco

    I had it happen with diesel from Asda to my Civic diesel. Went into "limp home" mode on the way to work. Got to Honda dealer and £90 later they diagnosed stuffed fuel filter. I was the 4th car they had looked at in a couple of days. All filled at Asda with diesel.

    Mobile phone gimbals for filming with your phone?

    The osmo is a lot more than just a gimbal. It'll do object tracking, motion timelapse, smart panoramas and other stuff. The tripod mount is handy plus it has a usb socket for keeping phones charged.

    I've got a DJI OSMO 2, they were on offer in december. Takes my Huawei P20 Pro no problem but i have to take the silicon case off it. Compatible with Filmic.

    Thats the one thing i hate about driving the OH's mini, you have other road users trying to force you on at their pace. Don't get that driving the big blue GT :)

    Archery

    Yep, shoot compound but havent picked the bow up since August last year. Bad tennis elbow in my right arm meant i couldnt draw the bow. Touch wood its just starting to get easier & less painful. Might try my old lower poundage compound bow at easter.

    BMW and M Power Owners

    Enjoying the change from a 118d to an F34 320d GT via the wifes 218d Active tourer. There is so much space inside but it doesnt feel like a big car when driving. M Sport kit with Pro-nav upgrade and in OH's favourite colour, Estoril Blue.

    *** The Car Cleaning Thread ***

    I use magma for cleaning wheels. Spray it on, leave it a few minutes as it turns red/pink. Work it into the nooks & crannies on the wheels then clean off with pressure washer. Gets rid of 99% of the crud on the alloys. I'm looking for a decent tar spot remover. Used clay bar to get rid of them...

    BMW and M Power Owners

    Car was out of warranty, just getting it done before it was picked up & sent back. Was just at right time in the scheme to get more for it, so changed it for a Mini Cooper. OH has that i get the 218 Tank. While i'm here, 3 series GT or 4 series Gran Coupe (with option on a 3xx Tourer). Which one?

    BMW and M Power Owners

    My 118 went in for a vehicle check before going to BMW(end of pcp). Basically said one of the front tires is slightly feathering at the side, cleared the service indicator & £40 + VAT please. Glad i used an independent BMW garage rather than dealer @ £79 for the same thing.

    **** The Official Huawei P20 Thread ****

    Yeah, the lack of shutter button is annoying. Dont find it to bad in the stock case grip wise. Didnt know that Waze had been ported to the Windows phones, saying that it'd probably have overheated the 950 in a matter of minutes.

    **** The Official Huawei P20 Thread ****

    One week into ownership of a P20 Pro & I'm impressed. After 5yrs of Windows phones (Lumia 900, 630 & 950xl) Android 8 with Nova launcher feels pretty slick. Nice and responsive. Used it heavily while in Holland last week, lots of free wifi and damn fast 4G network helped. Battery life has been...

    Driving in France

    Agree with the driving standards or lack of from the Belgians. Just come back from a week in Holland. Nice easy drive through top of france, sheer pandemonium in Belgium & back to relaxed driving in Holland. But on the 5 lane motorway round Schiphol, everyone just driving along at 110kph was so...

    Archery

    I used to shoot XX75's, nice arrows indoors but due to size can be prone to wind effect. Try some of the other arrow manufacturers. I was looking at ACG's but its £160 just for 12 shafts. After a bit of searching i went with a set of Victory VAP Target shafts, £125 for 12. They get cracking...

So out with the old Martin Ridge Hunter and in with the new Kinetic Trium X. New bow is 38" Axle to Axle, old...
